Door Overhang:
Proper door overhang is very critical to the performance of any exterior door, it will help to protect doors from the elements and extend the life of the door. Door overhangs protect the door’s finish paint, minimize the need to refinish and help to keep the weather out of home. A proper door overhang must be equal to half the height from the bottom of the door to the lowest point of the overhang. For example, if the measurement from the bottom of the door to the bottom of the overhang is 9 Feet, then the overhang should extend at least 4.5 Feet or longer. Failure to have a proper overhang will void the door warranty.
Waxing:
Every 3-6 months, we ask customers to use liquid silicone wax (such as premium autocar wax) to polish the surface in order to protect the finished on the door. Failure to wax every 6 months may void the warranty on the pre-finished.
